As a late game ironman, I don't really value the brimstone keys for their resources - only uniques. Superiors don't add *that* many (effectively an extra 1/100 monsters), and the chest itself just doesn't have that many resources I care about. Magic logs are a writeoff, so are steel bars since I'm never really making cannonballs. Runite ore is still too rare to be valuable for exp, it's more just there for the alch value once refined. Iron ore is a write off. The gems are not bad, but also not great since anything you need for jewelry you mine, and you don't really get enough for them to make a real dent in your crafting. The gold ore is effectively just saving cash from buying things at Blast Furnace store. Basically the resource drops are like "Sure, it's a bonus to my banked exp." but it doesn't really do much for me immediately, nor does it cut the grind down that much compared to how much it slows down slayer, and by extension slows down getting the heart. Every nech task I can't barrage could have been a great chance for the heart, for instance, and that time saved on those tasks can be used to gather the resources the chest might have given me in the first place. Really, the only valuable resources are the seeds, but outside of snapdragon and torstol they're not all that important once you're 99, and even then farming contracts take care of most of your needs. So at this point Konar is basically just there for coll log. Which is nice, mind you, I like going for log slots, but I find it hard to justify doing Konar when I still don't have a heart or eternal. I've already gotten my hydra uniques, so at this point the plan for me is looking like "Get Heart/Gem, swap to Konar." mixing and matching is just not viable due to needing vastly different block lists sadly. Of course, I acknowledge this is from a main's POV where the GP from Hydra is a lot more valuable since you can convert it into other resources, I just find it hard to justify chasing dusk mystic pre-heart and this comment is partly just rationalizing my decision to keep doing Duradel.
I’m around 40m slayer and I once I green logged konar on my main account I started using duradaddy. In fact I haven’t done the quest yet that kills him apparently lol. I only return to konar for the 10th task to get my bonus points.
Your slayer pure series is what inspired me to start playing osrs. With all the recent changes and updates I would love to know see your take on another slayer series if you have time! Cheers mate! Happy Holidays!
Im watching this forgetting i got 99 slayer recently lol. Duradel was supremely fast with all the burst tasks. But i diddnt make nearly as much money per hour as i do point boosting for hydra tasks.
I just finally got my first Hydra task. Im pretty hyped to finally learn it (even tho Im kinda nervous of planking a bunch lol). Trying to sell my heart drop to get a dragon slayer weapon. The task weight manipulation at the end of the video is amazing! It took me til level 96 the first time to get a Hydra task and your telling me I can have it at 1/15? Sold.
Can you make a guide about slayer in general and when to go to different masters and stuff personally I'm combat 70 ISH ATM and doing slayer with crystilia and wondering if I should do konar or if it would be to hard ect ect
i still don't like konar because of some of the bullshit locations, brimstone keys are okay i guess, the only reason i do konar now is to get any hydra tasks.

you're one of those ironmen that tried to use konar for the bonus points only and got salty when you didnt get 500,000 brimstone keys in 1 task lmao
No araxyte tasks means no reason to do konar.
You can get Araxxor as a boss task :P
@AsukaYenOSRS not a good response, araxyte tasks offer many more kills than araxor boss task. Your move
Araxxor is such great xp and gp
Word loving Araxxor right now, 115kc, just need one more of the pieces to the blade.

I’d like a block list that maximizes superiors and brimstone keys. Mid game iron man those keys are pretty nice
Been doing konar task ever since I could do them and going to until I get 99
First time I’ve seen the “jump ahead” button when the ad was playing. Very nice touch, is that some you did?

You’ll learn it pretty quick! DHCB with ruby bolts is good dps, with diamond and blowpipe switch for jad phase
great video!

You're right. Some of the locations are absolute trash. I just skip those. It's easy when you have 23,000+ slayer points :P
"Bloodvelds in the God Wars Dungeon" 🤮
Konar keys are the shit 👌
Brimstone keys good for Ironman
are you ok? ❤️
to avoid doin inferno should have made the list
Interesting take! Love the video and the loot series
